Lazy Stoner: let’s let that stereotype go up in smoke. Anyone who’s waxed poetic, finished an art project, or reorganized their bookshelf according to color after a few hits knows that this image of the archetypical cannabis smoker overlooks the energizing, creativity-enhancing benefits of consumption. For many creative minds, cannabis quiets the voice in our…

I’ve been in hotboxes so thick I couldn’t see my hand 2 inches from my face; I’ve begged the universe for mercy after eating too many brownies at once (we’ve all been there); and left craters in couches all over the state from sinking into them for hours at a time. My point is: I…

Whatever your reason for seeking premium indulgences, the ever-expanding cannabis market provides the discerning consumer with ample options for imbibing in style. With the recent wave…

Topicals aren’t usually my product of choice but Apotecanna lotions will make a believer out of you. These slightly scented creams definitely won’t get you high, nor are they meant to, but they promise to take your muscles into a state of relaxed bliss without a hint of marijuana smell.
